Well I wasd wanting to change a few tags but there seems to be a backwards
compatibility issue now. The main thing has been writing an ASN.1 encoder and
decoder which is suitable. This seems to now be working :-)
The main point is that we have to have a European source for the code as well.
I'm having to write pretty well everything myself :-( But its almost done :-)
I'm not planning to do SSL because I haven't got time.

Netscape dosen't run on this platform... [And its even UNIX!]
One point I could do with a bit of help with. What formats is TERISA using to
store certificates and public keys? I'm copying the RIPEM formats which are
fairly predictable and allows for interchangeability.
Phill.
